How To Put A Favicon On My Site

Anybody know how I can put a favicon in my websit so it shows in the address bar? I don't know if it matters but I use php-nuke 6.0, mysql, apache web server. I don't know if it is a seperate task to make it so the favicon goes in the favorites menu, when you add the site to favorites. But first I want it in the address bar. Then I'll try the favorites thing.

Make a file called favicon.ico and then upload it to your base directory.

Thanks, I did that and it didn't work, so I did a search and fornd that I needed to put this in the head section of my index.html file.

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="../../unavailable.html" type="image/x-icon">

You probably don't have to do that: I didn't, anyways. You might just not be seeing it because you have a whole lot of temparay files that don't point to it.

Get "FavOrg" to refresh your favicon lists:

Run it and see what happpens.
